Showdown
The hand
ticks toward noon,
main street quiets,
a voice call out -
make my day....

It brings beauty,
It brings joy.
Beauty, love, stregnth,
All of these it brings.
It hushes the songbirds,
It quiets the forest.
It fills me up,
When I hear the notes.

I do not know?
a new full moon
is a one-eyed owl
gazing upon my road
by the river, near the sea.
it quiets down
the caged chaos in me
as i step on my shadow
by the river, near the sea.

Tail-rhyme
The power of one word
a sentence to shame
Whose meaning suborted
and magic reclaimed
Only one syllable
quiets the storm
Where poets can dream
—in beauty reborn

Gandalf, my parrot
Your babble is ludicrous
Please SHUT THE HELL UP!
* Written for my beloved African grey parrot, Gandalf.
Has an incredibly huge vocab- but will never stay quiet!

Just when the night falls
the pain subsides, a little.
And the soul quiets.
In the night
silently hidden in my dream
I can listen to your voice
narrate of your dreams.
I can hear you sing.
Then
a new morning comes
and your song
ends

WHISPER
His kisses
whisper love.
I listen
as
his bottled up
desires
flow out.
I trace
those words
slowly
achingly
dangerously
desperately steadfast.
Gasping
Still
he quiets me
hopelessly endearing
in hushed
whispers.

Dark silence I embrace
Dark silence slows the pace
Dark silence cuts my frustration down to size
Dark silence quiets the chase
Dark silence relaxes my face
Dark silence cools my eyes

Lure of sunset quiets the soul
Mellowing hazed thoughts from day's work
Nothing but herbal tea clears mind
Oft not , caffeine- loaded Starbucks -
Peace wafts by brewing turmeric

Water is always my release,
release of that impulse to dive.
Dive fish-scaled and iridescent,
iridescent swells the water.
Water quiets and feels like home,
home undulates but stays sacred.
Sacred like every rolling wave,
wave that binds my soul to water.

I know where you’ve been
You’re not alone
Walking through doors
Looking for signs
I know where you’ve been
You’re not alone
Room full of noise
Quiets the mind
I know where you’ve been
You’re not alone
Open your eyes
And you will find
You’re not alone
Anymore

Sirens in more than one direction.
First responders
My soul quiets as I listen
They seem close then further away
As they leave I feel my breath leaving
And I realize I have been holding it.
I relax for a few minutes until the next siren

In a Van Gogh painting
cheap wine and waiting
inside our favorite cafe
out of focus strange day
swirling forever wars
madness midnight stars
satisfy my lust's desire
quenching passion's fire
Morphine in the vein
quiets the war's pain.

Whatever happens on the storm-tossed way,
Whatever happens to cloud up the day,
Whatever happens to cause me dismay~
I have Jesus.
Jesus, The One Who quiets the sea
Jesus, The One Who makes the clouds flee,
Jesus, The One Who brings hope to me~
I have Jesus.

IMPATIENCE
it’s spring gloomy day
and i watch from the window
strange quiets and excitements
hang in the humidity
like ghostly, long caged voices
the green explosion
has destroyed winter’s hold,
silenced the screaming,
and impatient nature
awaits a late burst of sun

whispering winds, comes
a blowing whirling rushing
stream shall surround me
~
a kiss breath from God's
mouth miraculous touches
us invisible
~
thunder screams rivals
me shaking my very soul
quiets waves spirit

Her beauty is captivating
Her ways are beguiling
Like a temptress
She stirs emotions deep within you
Yet she quiets the soul
She is strong
Yet gentle
A force never to be ignored
She listens
But never tells
She is deep
Not shallow
She's full of wonder
And mystery
She truly is the life
And heart of the sea

Sweet concord mellow wine
Loosening my tongue
As I tell all
To all
About you, the volcano erupting
Into my life,
Storming verbally
Crushing my heart...
But I don't cry,
Not me!
Sweet concord mellow wine quiets me
As as you claim you are mine
I ask, "Lord why me?"
"I asked for roses and you sent me a tree!"

Enclosed Rhyme
The desire to have her, mind, body and soul rages through me like a wildfire consuming all in its path
Unlike the wildfire that engulfs everything it sees, the desire only sees her
She is all the desire wants to consume
Every inch, every fiber, constantly, until the desire quiets
Which as the desire tells me, will be never

When the yellow fan quiets
the still night creeps forward
the panic of midnight arrives.
The crickets can't carry
a tune built on nothing
The moss fresh with dew can't help thrive.
I wonder 'till morning
I knew you before
The etchings my brain fascinates.
I pace fast and fury,
I wonder, I worry
My love is decideably late.

I do not know?
the water smooths herself out,
admiring the celebration of hope
the oaks admire the decorated pine
humans have adorned her
and set her adrift in a native canoe
she parades her truth, showing love
this happens every year the oaks whisper
the forest quiets herself feeling a reverence
a soulful event that changes the ambiance of the forest

The days I cannot stand
Noise
So much noise
Inside my head
Paralyzing
Immobilizing
Attacking relentlessly
Emotions
So many emotions
I know it can’t all be me
But the sun sets
And ends the riots
People sleep
The world quiets
Peace
Soothing peace
Especially at 1 am
Five hours later comes 6
And it starts all over again

a fine mist quiets the forest floor,
an acorn drops from above,
with a thud
a crisp oak leaf spirals,
gently to the ground
a burbling brook,
feeds it's trout
in a while, my heart joins in
.... and worries drift away

Imagism
You speak without words,
talk slowly, with fingertips
gorging on my soul;
As you strum I start to hum
sighing ever so sweetly;
Diabolical,
your anger excited me;
A moth to a flame,
ecstasy a brief smother
with that dark velour blanket;
Empty, crying out
my sound quiets the silence;
Subdues the restlessness
over and over again;
Now you know I’m a psycho.
Just like you .
